So that will be unbusted then Mythbusters!

When I saw them try this I thought that, theoretically, it should be possible...... experimenting with the idea is on a list of things to do somewhere in my workshop :)

No need to bother now, that is very cool!

I've got one question. What happens if and when the engine has a failure while in flite. There's no way that's ging to glide in for a landing.

I don't see a parachute on it either.

But still cool.

It probably wouldn't take much to add one of the light aircraft type parachutes.

It has a chute as standard, similar to that installed on some light aircraft.

Finally! a reason to visit New Zealand  ::)
